About

The Saboteur is a 2009 action-adventure game set in Nazi-occupied France during World War II. You'll fight, climb, and race through a stylized open world as you seek revenge against the enemies who've destroyed your life. The game stands out for its unique black-and-white aesthetic that transitions to color as you liberate occupied territories, creating a visually distinctive experience alongside its sandbox gameplay.

The Saboteur is quite accessible from a PC performance standpoint, making it ideal for benchmarking on older or entry-level systems. It requires only a basic GPU with a minimum score around 211, plus 2GB of RAM, so even modest hardware from the last decade will handle it comfortably. You can expect solid FPS performance and excellent scaling across various graphics settings, making it a reliable choice for testing how older gaming PCs perform.

With a 71/100 rating, The Saboteur delivers a solid action-adventure experience that action fans will appreciate. If you enjoy open-world gameplay and historical settings with satisfying revenge narratives, it's worth trying, especially since it runs well on budget GPU setups.

Performance profile

December 2009 release. The Saboteur targets mid-2000s-to-early-2010s hardware — any modern entry-level GPU (GTX 1650 tier or newer integrated graphics) handles it at 1080p Ultra without breaking a sweat.

The Saboteur is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Extremely light — The Saboteur runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

Play as Sean Devlin, a street-tough Irish racing mechanic seeking personal redemption in the first open-world action game set in Nazi-occupied Europe. Now, it's time for payback -- with the help of the French Resistance, British intelligence, an arsenal of weaponry, and your own street smarts and brawn, you must exact revenge on those who aimed to destroy your life. Motivated by retribution and armed with tactics of sabotage, blow up zeppelins, derail trains, implode bridges, destroy armored tanks, and level enemy facilities in the name of vengeance.
